Shimba Trail Safari
2 Days from $ 480 / person sharing
Experience an unforgettable 2-day safari to the largely unexploited Kenyan nature reserve of Shimba Hills near the coast. Not as world-famous as Masai Mara, Shimba Hills creates the magic that many have fallen in love with. The verdant green and ecological reserve is known to form the habitat for wildlife and splendid scenery. Towering forests open grasslands, and endless undulations of hills provide just a perfect backdrop for one grand adventure in discovery and wonder.
One of its exceptional features is its host to the rare sable antelope, an incomparably beautiful animal for whose sight not many countries are privileged in Kenya. Together with the sable antelope, other animals that can be seen in the place are elephants, giraffes, buffalos, and different bird species. This makes it a haven for all wildlife lovers and photographers. The reserve has Sheldrick Falls, which is a beautiful waterfall cascading into a tranquil pool, offering nature lovers the serenity to relax and communicate with nature.
Apart from the wildlife, Shimba Hills is a tranquil retreat away from jostling crowds that throng more popular reserves; it offers an intimate safari experience whereby you get completely immersed in the sights and sounds of the wild. Be it a quiet retreat or an exciting encounter with wildlife, this safari offers a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.
A safari in Shimba Hills National Reserve means exposure to rich biodiversity, stunning landscapes, and exclusive charm; all combine to make it an exposure to Kenya’s untamed beauty that one cannot afford to miss.

1. View the sable antelope

What our clients say about us
Collins Made it all feel easy!
Collins curated an excellent itinerary to Lewa Conservancy, Meru and Masai Mara and at exactly the right level. He was very flexible given a few changes forced on us by the airlines. The guides from the accommodations we stayed at all destinations were also brilliant and thus everything worked a treat. It was especially reassuring knowing that there was someone easily contactable if things didn’t go quite to plan which in the event they didn’t. A most memorable trip
Just an incredible adventure all around!
From the moment we first reached out to Kenya Wild Parks to the end of our journey, the experience was beyond what we could’ve hoped for. We got to do everything we’d dreamed of on this trip. Erick was fantastic—so thoughtful and detail-oriented when creating our itinerary. As if that's not enough, everyone we met was warm, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their work. You could see the pride and care in every part of the experience. Just an incredible adventure all around!
Truly personalized service and attention
Amazing service from the planning, to the logistics and then during the trip communication. Erick tailored our itinerary to perfectly match our interests and we enjoyed every suggestion he made. From the first contact to the last detail of the last day, I felt like he was genuinely interested in making sure that we got the best possible experience. He was consistently available to assist us whenever we needed, which provided great peace of mind throughout the journey. We highly recommend Kenya Wild Parks for anyone planning a safari to Kenya. Thank you for making this such a memorable adventure!
A great itinerary professionally executed
It was fantastic, from the time we booked to each part of the holiday, we are very lucky to spot all of the Big Five. The transport between each location was handled by Paul who were friendly and lovely to spend time with. The locations were fabulous, the highlight being Masai Mara Game Reserve!
Great travel company for Safari in Kenia
I received a very prompt, friendly and helpful response to my online enquiry from Erick. Their itinerary was very detailed and spot on along with the services we received at all stages of planning our trip. Erick couldn’t have done anymore for us, he was patient and accommodating, despite numerous changes and questions from me. Amazing service and a good overall price.
We're pleased we chose them
All our pre booked excursions were top class. The highlight being our pre-dawn hot air balloon safari. Can be cold due to morning chill but worth it. Hotel adequate and food was great. Stayed in luxury tented camp, exactly what we wanted, a deep connection with nature. The visit to Maasai Village was fantastic for the kids. Overall expensive but a great experience.
